Default Electrical Diagnostic Manual?

OK . . . I have the HD service manual, the HD parts manual, and even the HD supplemental manual for my 03 SERK . . .

Here is the question: "Do I really need the 2003 Touring Electrical Diagnostic Manual?"

Of course I will buy it . . . if I identify a real need . . . yes, I work on my own bike for most regular stuff . . . replace my own handlebars, adding passing lamps, cables, etc . . .

But I cannot figure out a real reason to by the 03 Touring Electrical Diagnostic Manual if I own a Screamin Eagle Road King . . . not a whole lot of electrical stuff on that model . . . even had to put on my own passing lights.

Convince me that spending the bucks ($48 plus shipping) is really worth and I will buy . . . I want to by it, but only if I really need it.

So, opinions?

1.) Wiring Diagrams, Complete and Color Coded
2.) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) procedures if your bike is Fuel Injected

I don't plan to rewire the bike . . . but I do have EFI and a PC V on it.

I just wound up buying a new one, getting a 20% discount from a dealer on it.

With the great members and info on this forum, probably was not a smart buy for me, but, I intend to keep the bike to the grave . . . Got it, but probably will never use it.

You might try posting a WTB . . . Or look on eBay for a used one.

cheers Rhetor

managed to get a workshop manual download for the bike and sussed my problem down to a faulty neutral sensor... now I just have to get one to replace it.. still the bike is still going..

re-wiring for me is a non-started as I don't make the expertise or understanding to do it..30 years on bikes and still wiring looms are still often a labyrinth of problems..

all the best, ride safe, F
